Qualcomm Snapdragon X24 LTE modem sampling started

That means you can realistically expect "Stranger Things" Season 2 in HD to download in between 84 seconds (1.4 minutes) and 28 seconds in the adjusted, real-world range. Which, I think we can agree, are both desirable.

5G has advantages other than speed. Think more like Snapdragon 850 (or whatever they call it).

In the first few years of the 5G changeover, we're going to see up-to-2Gbps 4G; a low-to-mid-band nationwide mobile 5G, which T-Mobile and Sprint are setting up, which could be about the same speed; and a short-range, high-speed 5G being laid down in big cities. "It will allow us to basically offer continuity of service between 4G LTE and 5G as the 5G systems are being launched".

You future smartphone could be ridiculously fast even without 5G.

David McQueen, Research Director at ABI Research, said: "This latest addition to Qualcomm'smodem stable is clearly a continuation of the company's drive to take the industry closer to 5G, while also significantly widening the technology gap from its competing suppliers". The X24 modem will likely arrive in devices in consumers' hands around the same time as the first 5G phones will, making it a key part of a hopefully smooth transition in 2019.

Freezing rain on the way for Halton
Freezing rain is expected for the most of the day Sunday after another round of snow developing overnight Saturday. It says freezing rain will start to fall Sunday afternoon, not tapering off until well into the evening.

The chipset giant has already started sampling the modem, with devices expected to hit the market by the end of 2018. In the uplink, the Snapdragon X24 LTE supports Category 20 upload speeds with 3×20 MHz CA and up to 256-QAM. On Wednesday, Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon X24 LTE modem, the company's eighth generation LTE multimode modem and its third generation Gigabit LTE offering.

Serge Willenegger, Qualcomm's wireless SVP and general manager stated that "the World's first announced Gigabit LTE modem will achieve speeds of up to 2 Gbps". This unprecedented feature set is created to allow devices that feature the Snapdragon X24 LTE modem to utilize all spectrum assets available from a mobile operator, whether in licensed spectrum, or with License Assisted Access (LAA).

There is also full-dimension Multi-Input Multi-Output (FD-MIMO) to give way to carriers to start sending their 5G signals. And while most of us have marveled at the 10nm manufacturing process that is used for today's flagship smartphones, the Snapdragon X24 is built on a new 7nm FinFET process.
